Hostage Families Forum: Netanyahu’s slogans can’t hide simple fact he has no plan

The Hostages and Missing Families Forum responds to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address this evening, stating that the premier did not articulate any plan for the release of their loved ones.

In response to the recorded statement, the forum says, “Many words and slogans will not be able to hide the simple fact — Netanyahu has no plan.”

“We heard this evening without end what can’t be done, we would appreciate hearing what can be done. It is no wonder the prime minister didn’t make time for questions, otherwise, he would have to answer the basic question: What is the State of Israel doing exactly to return all 59 hostages immediately?” the forum says.

The forum says it is “absurd” of Netanyahu to call the ongoing war, “the war of rebirth.”

“What kind of rebirth can happen without the return of the hostages kidnapped under his watch, and under his management of the war, are still held captive for over a year and a half,” the forum says, adding that the only solution is an end to the war in exchange for the release of all the hostages.
